barrier repair moisturizers

Barrier repair moisturizers are skincare products designed to restore and strengthen the skin's natural protective layer, known as the skin barrier. When this barrier is damaged—due to dryness, irritation, or environmental stress—skin can become sensitive, flaky, and prone to infection. These moisturizers contain ingredients like ceramides, fatty acids, and ceramide precursors that help replenish and reinforce the barrier, improving skin’s resilience and hydration. Using a barrier repair moisturizer can soothe sensitivity, reduce transepidermal water loss, and support overall skin health, especially for sensitive or compromised skin.
